Summary
This study looks at whether adding resistance (strength) exercises to standard aerobic and balance training can improve quality of life, daily activities, thinking skills, and muscle health in people with early-stage Parkinson's disease. About 34 adults aged 40-70 with mild to moderate Parkinson's will do exercises three times a week for eight weeks. Researchers will measure grip strength, walking speed, and other functions before, right after, and one month after the program ends.
